I do wish people would check their facts before slinging-off at
companies that are doing the right thing by the Linux community
(after all, can you see Microsoft releasing a version of Word for
Linux, or a version of Word for any platform that is free for
personal use?).

See

 http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/wordperfect/linux/wordperfect8-ausdict.gz

To install:

 mkdir wp
 Download
 cd wp
 tar xvzf wordperfect8-ausdict
 su
 Delete suspicious symlinks from /tmp [see BUGTRAQ for a discussion]
 ./Runme

You can post the squillion Euros to the address below [and here
was I thinking that I wouldn't get to visit France this year :-) ]

Cheers,
Glen
